This is a WikiProject, a collaboration area and open group of editors dedicated to improving Wikipedia's coverage of a particular topic, or to organizing some internal Wikipedia process. Please see the Guide to WikiProjects and the Directory of WikiProjects for more information. |
A WikiProject is a collection of pages devoted to the management of a specific topic or family of topics within Wikipedia; and, simultaneously, a group of editors who use those pages to collaborate on encyclopedic work. It is not a place to write encyclopedia articles directly, but a resource to help coordinate and organize the writing and editing of those articles.
Despite the name, the purpose of Wikipedia:WikiProject is concerned not with project management, but the daily management, administration and editor support of the process of article creation, editing and completion.
The attached talk pages are a convenient forum for those interested in a particular project.
Participating
There is a central Directory of WikiProjects available which lists all known projects; for ease of navigation, it has been split into sections by project topic:
WikiProjects are usually extremely welcoming towards new participants; please feel free to join any or all that interest you!
